Zusätzlich soll die Gefäßsteifigkeit am Ende der erweiterten Therapieperiode nach 52 Wochen zwischen beiden Behandlungsgruppen (Rivaroxaban und Aspirin) evaluiert werden.

LVLS or if not LVLS premature termination of the trial will be considered if: if risk-benefit ratio becomes unacceptable owing to, safety findings from this study results of any interim analysis (not planned yet), results of parallel clinical studies provided by the manufacturer, if the study conduct (e.g. recruitment rate; drop-out rate; data quality; protocol compliance) does not suggest a proper completion of the trial within a reasonable time frame.
